Empowering rural women health workers through training to provide life-saving care and improve community health with our primary medical care initiatives.<\/b><\/h3>\n

A new “Photo of the Day<\/strong><\/a>” features Kawan Sehat <\/strong><\/a>health workers refilling their medicines with us during a multi-day training session<\/strong> in Wairara<\/strong>, located in the malaria-endemic<\/a> Mahu <\/strong>sub-district. For years, we have been committed to improving the health of communities in this region, where access to medical resources, care<\/strong>, and medications<\/strong> is limited. Our efforts include initiatives to promote safe drinking water<\/strong> and sanitation<\/strong> and\u00a0the implementation of the primary medical care program<\/strong><\/a>, all aimed at saving lives<\/strong> and improving overall health outcomes.<\/p>\n

These exceptional women<\/strong>, from remote areas<\/strong> like Lulundilu<\/a>, Haray<\/a>, Lahiru<\/a>, Wairara<\/a>,<\/strong> and Praikalala<\/strong><\/a>, are among six health workers undergoing vital training<\/strong> for themselves and their communities here in this sub-district. Despite the dangerous roads<\/strong> that lead to their isolated villages, their unwavering dedication<\/strong> is truly admirable.<\/p>\n

Their enthusiasm<\/strong> and infectious happiness<\/strong> are truly remarkable. They have an abundance of energy and a thirst <\/strong>for knowledge<\/strong>. Over several days, these Kawan Sehat<\/a> health workers acquired skills in treating illnesses<\/strong> and wounds<\/strong>, administering medications<\/strong>, monitoring vital signs<\/strong>, measuring blood pressure<\/a><\/strong>,\u00a0disinfecting<\/span>\u00a0wounds<\/strong> and diseases<\/strong>, recognizing malaria <\/a><\/strong>symptoms, and providing valuable information<\/strong> to patients. They are now equipped to process, test<\/strong>, and offer recommendations<\/strong> with confidence.<\/p>\n

This powerful image<\/a> captures the determined look<\/strong> of these women, with one of their children in the centre. This young person is also acquiring knowledge and will perhaps<\/strong> one day benefit from the life-saving medical care<\/strong> provided by these women by her mother.<\/p>\n

Empowering Kawan Sehat<\/a> health workers in rural areas is not just about training; it\u2019s about transforming communities. Their dedication<\/strong> and new skills<\/strong> save and improve lives\u201d – Alex Wettstein<\/a>, CEO and Founder of Fair Future Foundation<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Communities rely heavily on the primary medical care program<\/strong><\/a> because it provides crucial<\/strong> skills and resources to meet basic health needs<\/strong> in areas where medical services are scarce. Through this program, health workers can significantly improve the health<\/strong> of their villages, prevent serious illnesses<\/strong>, and provide rapid and effective care<\/strong>. These health workers<\/a> are considered essential people in the town, instilling hope<\/strong>, providing solutions, and facilitating healing<\/strong> within their communities.<\/p>\n

We are steadfast in providing training, education<\/strong>, and healthcare<\/strong>. Your help allows us<\/a> to move forward to ensure a safer<\/strong> and healthier <\/strong>future for those living in isolated areas. Our collective efforts<\/a> have a palpable impact on the well-being of these vulnerable people<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
